Every year the Texas Southern University recreation center turns a portion of their facilities into the grounds used for the annual Health and Wellness fair. Vendors on and off campus come to set up their table and provide a variety of goods from complimentary services to informational handouts. For the 2016 health fair, members of the TSU Oddis Turner Dietetics Club provided healthful information in regard to nutrition. The student members also conducted body composition measurements for the public using the Dietetic Program’s BIA scale! 2016 is the fourth year of consecutive participation for the TSU dietetics club.
